The August 14, 2025 episode featured my talk with Mary Ancheta Music about her new album, “Rituals,” released on July 18, 2025 – her love letter to the Philippines. In our talk, Mary shared why it was important to connect with her heritage through this music, the rituals behind some of the songs, and her experience using TONTO (The Original New Timbral Orchestra) to record the synths on the album. Mary’s three recommended artists are Ben Wendel, Bjork and Amanda Sum.

The episode included music from Susie Ibarra Music, Christopher Icasiano, diskarte, Audrey Ochoa, Joshua Banks, Joanna Borromeo, Mary Ancheta, Amanda Sum, Björk, Ben Wendel and Kalia Vandever.
